For over a century, Audemars Piguet has devised endlessly inventive horological masterpieces. Throughout the years, Audemars Piguet watchmakers have surpassed technical and theoretical boundaries to craft ever more demanding mechanisms. Audemars Piguet is in the heart of vallée du Joux, a region that beats to the tune of complicated watch mechanism, that everything started of Audemars Piguet in 1875.

The Vallée de Joux, birthplace of Audemars Piguet and cradle of high-end Swiss watchmaking, is an awe-inspiring, ruggedly beautiful region nestled in the Jura Mountains, north of Geneva. The natural resources of the Vallée de Joux – specifically the forests, water, ice and rocks from which iron ore could be extracted, provided the means for the watch industry to evolve and thrive. To this very day, the raw nature of this majestic region with vibrant views of the clear night sky, has served as inspiration for watchmakers. Watch mechanisms are indeed representations of the passage of time as dictated by astronomy, and nature has always inspired the development of time measurement devices.

Audemars Piguet embodies the very foundations of watchmaking, as technical skills merge with excellence, a finely-tuned sense of detail is pushed to its very limits, and artistic life is breathed into a timepiece to make it a truly exceptional and unique work of art. These foundations were laid on a rare savoir-faire, which dates back to bygone days and has been handed down with the utmost dedication from generation to generation of watchmakers at Audemars Piguet’s workbenches since 1875.
